GMC Trivia. In 1901, Max Grabowsky established a company called the Rapid Motor Vehicle Company, which developed some of the earliest commercial trucks ever designed. The trucks utilized one cylinder engines. In 1909, the company was purchased by General Motors to form the basis for the General Motors Truck Company, from which GMC Truck was derived. Another independent manufacturer purchased by GM that same year was Reliance Motor Car Company. Rapid & Reliance were merged in 1911, and in 1912 the marquis GMC Truck was first shown at the New York International Auto Show. In 1925, GM purchased the controlling interest in Yellow Coach, a bus manufacturer based in Chicago, Illinois which was founded by John D. Hertz. After purchasing the remaining portion in 1943, GM renamed it GM Truck and Coach Division, and it manufactured transit and inter urban buses in Canada and the United States until the 1980s. Although General Motors introduced its first pickup truck in 1930, the term Silverado was a designation only used to detail the higher level trim for the Chevrolet C/K pickup trucks from 1960 through 1999. GMC used a few variations of the Sierra name (Sierra, High Sierra, Sierra Grande, Sierra Classic) to distinguish the different trim levels through 1987 Source: 1978 GMC pickup Wikipedia Search terms: Pick up, Stepside, 1978 GMC pickup truck for sale, 1978 GMC Step side for sale, 1978 Step side for sale, 1978 GMC Truck for sale, 1978 Sierra Step side, by owner, resto mod.
